Maybe she only thought she’d reach an Angophone audience, or wasn’t comfortable writing in German since she’d stopped being instructed in it at a somewhat young age? I wonder if she supervised the translation? In English the trilogy is called “Out of the Hitler Time” which sounds like a very clunky translation of “Aus der Hitlerzeit.”

Comment on Things I can’t think my way out of by nettebuecherkiste https://meandrichard.wordpress.com/2019/05/22/things-i-cant-think-my-way-out-of/#comment-168729
Sat, 25 May 2019 12:22:18 +0000http://meandrichard.wordpress.com/?p=49522#comment-168729It’s similar with my father. On days when the nursing service visits for his bath, he starts staring out of the window at 7 though they never arrive before 10. When my sister whants to pick him up at 11.15, he insists on changing clothes as soon as I get up. I haven’t found any solution yet either, I bought him a talking clock (which he then presses every few minutes and sometimes he claims it’s lying…) and try to explain he doesn’t need to do anything and can watch TV as usual, but it doesn’t comfort him.

Fri, 24 May 2019 14:25:22 +0000http://meandrichard.wordpress.com/?p=49524#comment-168711She definitely accomplished a lot in her life after the jolt of being a refugee. She seems to have been very funny as well, based on memories of her I’m seeing. People kept asking her about the symbolism of the “Tiger Comes to Tea” book and she kept insisting it was just about the tiger.

Fri, 24 May 2019 14:24:08 +0000http://meandrichard.wordpress.com/?p=49524#comment-168710I didn’t even know there was a third one till I was an adult — I think maybe it wasn’t in our public library. When Hitler Stole Pink Rabbit was a great book for kids because despite everything, it’s humorous and mildly upbeat. The second two books are less so — or rather, Kerr has definitely adopted the British spirit of getting on with life but she works less hard on masking the difficult aspects of life as a refugee.

Fri, 24 May 2019 12:15:46 +0000http://meandrichard.wordpress.com/?p=49524#comment-168704Read When Hitler Stole Pink Rabbit in school and learnt a lot from it. Have never read the sequels for some reason. I will add them to my list.

However from the pieces I have read it does seem an interesting story.
